   I guess you sent this before seeing my last mail.

   In the end, they took all the Polaroids, all the silver and C41 and
hauled it down to Photo Laplante in Laval where they will run it through
a Fuji Frontier.

   I don't expect them to come to me after asking for a real print
either. They'll get what comes to them from the Frontier and think
that's as good as it gets.

   That's what bugs me the most. Because the prints won't look that
great, I, as the photographer, will probably be blamed.
